Hey, my name is Maribel Parra. I was born and raised in Lawrence, Mass. Today, my life consists of living on my own, working two jobs, and being a full time student. To me this symbolizes that I could do anything I set my mind and heart to. I have learned to set short term and long term goals in my life, simply to keep myself motivated at all times.  This is a quote I go by everyday, “Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop questioning”, by Albert Einstein.
